41. Can I ask about Becerra?

Sat Apr 11, 2026, 01:24 PM

Saturday

We're pretty close in opinion about Porter, but I haven't really heard anything pro nor con about Becerra that moves me either way. I was planning to read a bit more this weekend. Since I respect your opinion, I'm curious what rules him out for you.
